#### Celebrating 2019 as One of the World’s Top Managed Service Providers
It is truly an honor to be featured as one of the top 501 MSPs in the world. After 20 years in business, EMPIST has proceeded to make a name for themselves as a Managed Service Provider. Though their headquarters is in Chicago, EMPIST has expanded its team with several office locations in Greece and a recent addition to Phoenix, AZ.
The technological landscape evolves, and so does business. That’s why EMPIST prides itself on being a catalyst of innovation for their clients and finds smart digital solutions to constantly improve upon their day to day operations.
The Channel Futures MSP 501 reported a [35% growth rate](https://www.channelfutures.com/msp-501/channel-futures-reveals-2019-msp-501) year-over-year from applicants in 2018, making the competition tough. The winning results were weighed in by the applicants’ strategic business models, their commitment to customer care, and their overall knowledge of the managed services industry. In addition to the making the MSP 501 list, EMPIST was also ranked as one the most successful companies in America by Inc. 5000 this year.
“To see our name on the MSP 501 list is equally exciting and inspiring. As we look to the future, we will continue to hold firm to the principles and values we were founded on nearly 20 years ago.” – EMPIST Founder & CEO, John Kampas
